1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundHaemorrhoids occur commonly and frequently in the human digestive system. There are diverse causes of haemorrhoids and their in-depth pathogenesis is still currently unclear.

methodsIn this study, we explored haemorrhoids from an epigenetics perspective by employing RNA-Seq for comprehensive and in-depth analysis of the differences in microRNA (miRNA) transcripts between haemorrhoidal tissue and normal tissue in 48 patients with Grade II and above haemorrhoids.

resultsThe results showed that 9 miRNAs were significantly upregulated (ratio > 3.5 and P-value < 0.01) and 16 miRNAs were significantly downregulated (ratio > 0.6 and P-value < 0.01) in haemorrhoid tissue. Subsequently, target gene prediction results showed that there were 184 potential target genes of significantly upregulated miRNAs (common to both TargetScan7.1 and MirdbV5 databases) and there were 372 potential target genes of significantly downregulated miRNAs. Gene ontology analysis results showed that the target genes of differentially expressed miRNAs in haemorrhoids are involved in regulating "cell composition" and "protein binding". Lastly, KEGG search found that the differentially expressed miRNAs that are associated with the occurrence of haemorrhoids mainly regulate the activity of endocytosis and the synaptic vesicle cycle.

conclusionsIn summary, the results of high-throughput RNA-Seq screening suggested that the occurrence of haemorrhoids may be intimately associated with aberrant miRNA transcription, resulting in aberrant target gene expression and an imbalance in certain signal transduction pathways.
